About the Business

A hyperlocal delivery startup operating across 6 cities, connecting local businesses with end consumers and freelance delivery riders. The platform needed both supply (riders) and demand (businesses) growth simultaneously.

The Challenge

The marketplace faced a classic two-sided platform challenge — driver supply wasn't keeping up with order growth, and marketing spend was inefficient with no clear attribution model across channels.

Our Strategic Approach

We implemented a dual-sided growth strategy, running separate funnels for rider acquisition and merchant onboarding.

  • Geo-targeted paid campaigns by city
  • Driver acquisition funnel optimization
  • Merchant onboarding email and retargeting sequences
  • App store optimization and review management
  • Weekly A/B testing on creatives and landing pages

The Solution

Brainito separated the marketing functions for each side of the marketplace and built distinct funnels for riders and merchants. Local campaigns drove high-intent traffic while automation kept conversion rates consistent.
